    Comments on Jr.
    This animation is one of the most beautiful pieces of cinema I have ever had the pleasure of viewing. It's a wonderfully comic short film that make your heart melt. How on earth can an animation bring a lamp to life enough for people to feel for it? An amazing piece of film that should be enjoyed by everyone
